The CD that came with the device listed RTL8671B, but it's not on Realtek's website. Instead the manual points you to:

didn't initially work. I ended up needing to right click the link and select Save target as
.
For it to work for me on Windows 10, I unzipped the cab file into a folder and then used Device Manager to look at that folder. Worked like a charm.
Not so fast, if you check Windows BT stats for my BT headphones, it's happily using aptX. I believe the BT streaming referenced to here is for hands-free audio, where the codec actually does DSP and ADC/DAC conversion. For regular audio streaming the BT chipset gets the stream already packed. Or that's my theory in any case, my exposure to designing BT devices is for embedded applications without voice/audio capabilities (think setup).
In any case I bought this dongle (Avantree DG45) because the headphones crackle obnoxiously when another BT device (mouse, xbox controller) is being used, making them pretty unusable. Doesn't seem to have been a silver bullet, in fact it seems it's the exact same chipset in the previous and this one, pfft. So much for "new" model.
